Unknown P.O.V.
Once I knew I was out of harm's way, I slowed down to catch my breath behind a nearby building. Sweat dripped down my face as I knelled down exhausted. My feet ached from the long run, and my throat was parched.
"Jeez I gotta stop these crazed runs I got going for me." I mumbled pushing my quills back.
"Trent look! A doggie!" startled by the unexpected outbreak, I backed into the corner where it was a bit darker.
Did I just hear a kid? Crap, hopefully I was in the dim enough where they couldn't glimpse me. Peeking around the corner, I could see two figures approaching. I sank back against the wall, and waited uneasily.
"Sophie!"
I could now hear a young boys voice. This wasn't good.
"Sophie, wait for me!"
It was hushed. The only sound was of the pant from me and the two strangers. Turning my head to them, I could see a girl and a boy. The girl was just a bit shorter than me, but the other one…not so much. They didn't seem to bad, and well…curiosity got the better of me.
Standing up right, I looked at them both. Their eyes pinned on me.
"Hi…" The little girl whispered. She tried walking up to me, but the boy grabbed her fiercely.
"No! We don't know this being!" My eyes creased as I observed them both.
"But Trent, I think its lost." She said sadly.
"Sophie…Mom wanted us home thirty minutes ago. I am sure the last thing she wants us is bringing home another dog."
I smiled.
"Well its your lucky day, I ain't no dog kid. I'm a hedgehog, how would she feel bout that?"
The little girl, who I know is Sophie, grinned and looked at Trent surprised.
"She talked!"
The boy stared at me with alarmed eyes. He had dark brown shaggy hair, and the girl had a long blonde pony tail. I stepped forward towards the little girl who seemed comfortable with me.
"Hey there, your names Sophie huh? I am lost. You think you can tell me where I am?" I said kneeling down to her height.
She nodded getting a beam on her face.
"Your in Texas." I blinked.
"Texas?...Is that the name of this world?" the girl looked at me with a mystified face.
Trent came up to me and looked at me with a curious glance.
"What do you mean by world? Did you hit your head or something?...Your kind of bleeding bad…"
I looked up to see blood still running on the side of my head.
"Oh, ha-ha, naw that's nothing. Just a little trouble with some crazy men. You ain't a crazy boy no?" I said giving a teasing smile.
He laughed a bit feeling a bit more comfortable with me. That's better than nothing.
"I still don't understand what's going on…" I whispered staring down.
"Who are you?"
Looking back up to the boy, he had his sister behind him protectively still suspicious.
I nodded giving a friendly gesture. "My name Is Summer. Summer the Hedgehog. I take that your Trent."
He nodded uneasily. The boy looked to be close to twelve. The girl, possibly ten. As myself, I am sixteen. I crossed my arms and sighed.
"Summer, where did you come from?" Sophie whispered looking attentively at me.
Smiling I looked out to the field not to far, thinking of it.
"Well, my home is on a far away planet called Mobious. Such a beautiful place. Apparently I got transported here and now, I am a heap of trouble. I am afraid I really must be going." I whispered hearing some calls that could be the soldiers.
"Cant we help?" Trent said looking at me anxious.
I chuckled giving a shake to my head.
"That's a nice thing of ya, but the last thing I need is getting two youngsters like yourselves into a whole lot of mischief. Go on and get home now, I don't want yawl caught up in this."
I turned around and began running back out to the street.
"Wait! Summer! Don't go!" Sophie cried.
I stopped, and looked back slightly.
"Sorry kid…I got to get going." I whispered in reply.
I then dashed off, hoping I could find someone familiar in this chaotic place.
Well I am just loving this story! Hopefully the editing will make it easier on yawl. Thanks for the support! C.T.H.
